Summary

Description courtesy of Vanns.com:

The Yamaha HTR5850 is a full-featured digital home theater receiver ready for all formats. It sports a couple of features that not only improve the sound quality of your system, they also make your life a little easier. Component Video Up Conversion takes composite signals and converts them into a component signal. This not only ensures the highest quality video from any source, it means you only need one connection to your HDTV monitor. No more switching inputs according to your source, it can all go through the component video connection.

This model is available in both black (Yamaha HTR-5850BL) and Silver (Yamaha HTR-5850SL).
